  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Willingness to learn — paid training provided, including CPR, medication administration, and crisis prevention
  • Ability to meet physical requirements (lifting, standing, assisting with transfers, and driving program vehicles)
  • What We Offer :

  • Competitive Pay & Benefits (medical, dental, vision, life insurance, 401k with employer match)
  • DailyPay – make any day a payday!
  • Paid Training and annual in-service development
  • Advancement Opportunities through our LEAP Leadership Program
  • A mission-driven culture where your work has purpose and impact
  • Qualifications :

  • High school diploma or GED required ; prior experience in human services preferred but not required
  • Must be at least 18 years of age with a valid driver’s license
  • Ability to pass background checks and required health screenings
  • Ability to read, write, and communicate effectively in English and complete documentation
  • Why Beacon?

    At Beacon, we don’t just offer jobs — we offer fulfilling careers. As a Day Program Professional, you’ll join a team that values compassion, teamwork, and growth. Every day you’ll have the chance to empower individuals to live fuller, more independent lives.
